Age of Conan

So, I'm half retarded and was wondering if my pc will run AoC decently.

AMD Sempron 3000+

1.81 Ghz    2GB ram

ATI x1300 512md vid card

turn view distance down to around 500k for beta you cant see the other gazillion k any way why load it it solved my left or right turn crashes

debuggers gone as of patch im told. i forced VSync through nvidia options. 2.0, 2.x shaders checked. bloom disabled. games runs good sometimes, terrible most times.

its too bad, ill keep on tweaking this beta until its over but as of yet, i cannot buy this game.

any

What mmo has trials before a year or so?  Not very many at all.

I've launched the game for the first time, seems like it took around 5 minutes for the initial load (black screen during that time, right after hitting play).  Then it seems to be very heavy on the cpu for a while while the main menu displayed..  Went into create char process.. lots of sturrering and i assume building of caches, then it was smooth.   So I guess running it for the first time means one has to be patient while stuff renders and caches etc.  Love the fact that my g15 lcd picked up right away

This is what i need in a game.

Fun.

loadingscreens of up to a minute isnt fun.

I will have a pc that meets and excells the recommended requirements and i will have 2x geforce 9800gtx to take care of graphics.

But if the game is too "ahead of time" and grouping up for raids etc will be impossible cause the pc's to meet up with the games req isnt made yet or too expensive for the normal gamer, i wont play it for long.

i m running a pentium duo 2.8 ghz nvidia 8600 gt with 3 gb ram... somewhere inbetween recomended and required specs . if (please note i say IF meaning that i m not saying it will be , i know what some of you are like )the released version is anything like the beta those specs are misleading .

Sorry you seem disapointed. I am running a 1.8 duo with 8600gts and only 2gb ram........It runs very smooth on low settings and personaly i am really enjoying it, definately going to buy this and it can only improve. Lots mention to take out the .shader files, i tried this and sure enough if those loading screens are getting to some of you i went from 5-7mins load time into thirsty dog down to about 2 seconds. Of coarse this effects some of the appearance, but even prior to doing this...near the beach area i was running at 60fps

and this is during a stress test!

Get real people..this game is bloody fantastic and if there are a load of bugs to clear...so what...i can cope. I blame consoles for everything! back when you used to have to wait 10-15 mins everytime you had to load a game on the spectrum and listen to them crash over and over and start all over again, used to happen so much you could sing along with the tune of the screeching noises...and you would know exactly where it was going to crash and waited with heart in mouth hoping it would carry on to the next bit lol. Spoilt..the lot of ya....and we had to walk to school bare foot in the snow. Where am i going with this,,,ahh right....nowhere ^^. Look..its great....don't listen to these little anklebitters or jaded gamers, it will only get better.

My Rig:
AthlonXP 1700+ 1.4GHz.
2GB RAM DDR
ATI X1650 512MB AGP

Just to ask before I try to download the beta. Does the processor fall too small, or could the video card make up for it?

-----
Required
OS: Windows Vista/XP
Processor: 3GHz Pentium IV
RAM: 1GB RAM
Video Card: Shader Model 2.0 and 128MB RAM: NVIDIA GeForce 5800 or ATI 9800

I'm wondering the same thing.

My rig:

AMD 3000+

1.81Ghz

2Gb Ram

ATI X1300 512mb AGP

Can I run it even at lowest settings?

And any suggestions on a new proccessor?

This is now very outdated.

Thanks for that, how about a suggestion on a new processor or board and chipset?
